    The protect movie feature isn't added either (i think?), so i would recommend that you use 3dfa 3.7 until the final release of v4 comes out.

    i don't think it works either

    I think your right Twisted Mind. I tried to protect my movie and it didn't work.

    Also, Jiblob, I have been trying for a long time to see if there is a more "high tech" of making a loading movie. There might be in 3dfav4b2 but I haven't discovered it yet. But like Twisted said, you'll want to stick with 3dfav3.72. By the way, are they planning to make a loading movie feature for v4? I hope so....

    If there woulb be a hi-tec way, i think it would be that you should stream the movie and then make som actions... But compressed flash movies cannot steam, and 3DFA v.4 exports compressed flash movies.

    In this case... it's found and lost!

    Hey guys guess what... me and AJcompany found the loading movies! YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.... oh but wait. They don't work yet. So just to let you know, it appears as though they are planning on it! Some may want to e-mail them just telling them loading movies don't work.

    PS: for those who are wondering, we found the file that supposed to be the loading movie and put it into the editing window, the loading movie option popped up, but it still doesn't work. It won't let you add a loading movie.

    They're not completely lost

    I think they know that they heven't added the loading movie feature... Still working on basic bugs i think.
    I use v. 3.7 right now, but i need the new verision functions for some things... I have a deadline in a month, damn...

    Err, yeah. Dan came over to my house and we worked on getting together the scripts. I found the loading movie EasyScript/HTML, and added it to the end. I also had to resurrect the menu for loading movies from 3.72. Despite my best efforts, it would appear that 3DFA hasn't added a .loadingmovie attribute, once they do, this will work, but as of now, it doesn't.
